As research shows, Generation Z is eschewing alcohol consumption in favor of drug misuse. This generational shift in substance abuse behavior has brought about a major increase in drug overdoses in teens aged 12 to 17.
It can be hard for parents to know that their child has begun abusing opioids, as it's not as easy to track missing pills as it is missing alcohol. If there are beer cans missing from the fridge, or whiskey bottles that are visibly depleted, it's clear that alcohol is being consumed. But opioid abuse is far less obvious.
